Tumbling Tom F1 - Yellow / 10 seeds
(Lycopersicon esculentum)
Hanging tomato / hanging tomato
Variety description: The hanging tomato `Tumbling Tom` is an ornament due to its overhanging, bushy and strongly branched growth. It is suitable for hanging baskets, balcony boxes and tall containers.
From July to October it produces huge amounts of small yellow tomatoes. These are sweet and crisp - perfect for snacking. They are also easy to cut open, look decorative on salads and can be used in soups.
Cultivation: The seeds for tomatoes can be sown from the beginning of January to the end of May. At 20° - 25°C the seeds germinate after 5 - 14 days. For faster germination you can let the seeds soak overnight in a damp cloth. Always grow on the windowsill or in the greenhouse until mid-March. The tomato plants can only be put outside after the frost.
Care: The cultivation temperature is 18° - 20°C and should not be below 14°C at night. Loose, humus-rich and moist soil is suitable. Good, uniform soil is sufficient. Sunny and wind-protected locations are ideal for rapid and healthy growth.
